What is the deffinion of ionic bonbs?
Iron bombs are used today to separate them from atomic/flame/and smart bombs. During WW1 & WW2 there was only a need to use the terms fire bombs or general purpose bombs (High Explosive). During the Korean War, we had to separate the atomic bomb from fire bombs and general purpose bombs. During the Vietnam War, the same separations had to be termed. By the end of the Vietnam War in 1975, SMART Weapons had to be added to the ATOMIC, FIRE, GENERAL PURPOSE bombs...so the accepted term for General Purpose (High Explosive) bombs came to be known as IRON BOMBS; aka Dumb Bombs.
